Hi, I am building a new pc and I am using an MSI B350 TOMAHAWK PLUS and an AMD Ryzen 3 1300x. What are some good choices for a stock cooler?

A stock cooler is the cooler that comes with your CPU. Anything else would be considered aftermarket. So basically anything that isn't sold by AMD (or Intel if you're using Intel chips), would be considered aftermarket. What is a good cooler? Well depends if you plan to overclock. But the Cooler Master 212 Evo is a good all rounder. But if you're overclocking, might want to get something a bit better.

The Cryorig H7 has surpassed that as the choice budget cooler, but as everyone else said, the stock cooler will work just fine.

Make sure to quote or tag me (@JoostinOnline) or I won't see your response!
